The Dreaded 2(d) Refusal to Register a Trademark
If you tried to register a trademark or service mark for your Northridge business on your own, and you received a 2(d) refusal from the USPTO examining attorney, we may be able to help you!
A 2(d) refusal is issued to a trademark registration applicant when the examining attorney determines that there is a likelihood of confusion between the mark you applied for and a pre-existing trademark that is already registered in the USPTO database. However, a 2(d) refusal is not always the end of the road for your trademark application. You may have a valid argument that would overcome the examining attorney’s refusal to register your trademark. Call us today and let’s discuss the details of your application. We can help you determine if there are any counter-arguments that can be made on your behalf to persuade the examining attorney to allow registration of your trademark.
